                text: "Kindergarden",
                thumbnail: "path/to/an/image.png"
            }
        ]
    }
]};

Here you can add:

• a title
• a description
• as many sections as you want, with, foreach:
  • a title
  • an optionnal class name
  • expend: true if you want it to be expended by default
  • a list of keys, with a latitude, a longitude, a zoom, and a text; optionally a thumbnail can be set to be displayed instead of the map extract
• (optional) displayPopup: boolean to control the creation of a popup on key click (can be set at root level, section level or key level)

Add it to your L.TileLayer options

var mylayer = L.tileLayer(..., {legend: legend});

Deactivate the L.Control.Attribution

var map = L.map('map, {..., attributionControl: false});

### Add the L.Control.TileLegend to you map

var legendControl = (new L.Control.TileLegend()).addTo(map);
